The documentation for ColorData reads:
Possible properties in ColorData["scheme","property"] include:
"ColorFunction" "ColorList" "ColorRules" "Image" "Name" "Panel" "ParameterCount" "Range" {"Range",i}
Are there any others?

3 Evaluating ColorData["Properties"] in 10.0.2 returns:
{"AlternateNames", "ColorFunction", "ColorList", "ColorRules", "Image", "Name", "Panel", "ParameterCount", "Range", "StandardName"} This however is also incomplete. Some spelunking reveals that there are more. Here is a complete list from the function definition itself:
"StandardName" "Name" "AlternateNames" "PrivateStandardNames" "ColorFunction" "ColorList" {"ColorList", "Sorted"} "ColorRules" {"ColorRules", "Sorted"} "Range" {"Range", _Integer?Positive} "ParameterCount" "Image" "Panel" "ColorNames" {"ColorNames", "Sorted"} "BlendArgument" "PrivateNote" - 2$\begingroup$ I think it would be good to mention that a user can get most of these by evaluating
ColorData["Properties"], which produces{"AlternateNames", "ColorFunction", "ColorList", "ColorRules", "Image", "Name", "Panel", "ParameterCount", "Range", "StandardName"}. In general, evaluatingsomeData["Properties"] usually produces useful info aboutsomeData`. $\endgroup$m_goldberg– m_goldberg2015-03-06 09:32:27 +00:00Commented Mar 6, 2015 at 9:32 - $\begingroup$ @m_goldberg That's a good point, but as that data is now known to be incomplete I was uncertain of the value of mentioning it. $\endgroup$Mr.Wizard– Mr.Wizard2015-03-06 09:34:07 +00:00Commented Mar 6, 2015 at 9:34
